Formulating, understanding, and managing risk

Compassion-focused understanding of difficulties
Outside of psychology, the term 'supervision' can have negative connotations, as if your work needs supervising or addressing. However, in psychology, we value supervision as a safe space to reflect on how we can best support the people we work with, how we can look after ourselves during this work, and how we can continue to develop both personally and professionally, as helping professionals.
Dr Leanne Harper is an experienced supervisor, drawing on experience from the NHS, crisis & prison services, the private sector, and overseas.
Supervision is a space to reflect on our work, to allow time to consider cases from multiple perspectives, and think about how our own experiences of the world, and the people we are working with, can impact on our practice.
​
Dr Leanne offers a relationally informed approach to supervision, drawing on principles from Cognitive Analytic Therapy, Systemic and Family therapy, and feminist inspired views on the cultural influences of mental health. She also draws upon skills-based approaches such as ACT, CFT, and DBT-informed coping skills.
​
Leanne also offers supervision to assistant, aspiring, and trainee psychologists who would like to focus on working in a relationally informed way. She is a DClinPsych accredited supervisor.
Psychological supervision;
not just for psychologists.
Throughout her career, Dr Leanne has seen the benefits of offering psychological supervision to all helping professionals. She therefore prioritises space for any professional who works with people, who would like to add a psychological understanding to their work. This includes [but is not limited to] social workers, nurses, occupational therapists, psychiatrists, support workers, housing officers, teachers, emergency service workers, and managers. This can include ad hoc meetings to consider psychological approaches to complex cases, or as a part of continued personally and professional development.
